A archaeological term for a field archaeologist who pushes a shovel or trowel through the dirt more often than a pen across paper (typically through lack of advanced degrees or love of the outdoors and discovery). The term was invented as a corruption of the term "digger" which rimes with nigger hence archaeological "field nigger" was a protypical term. In the early 1970s "Degroe" was invented therefore to adapt a sarcastically more politcally correct base word linkage ie. using digger and negroe. Degroe was mockingly inspired by 1960s southerners who tried to stop saying niggers by saying negras instead of negroes. No racial slurs exist in any of this but the status of the field archaeologist has all to often remained low frequently for no good reason. Hence the parallel with the treatment of African Americans who did a great deal of work and received very little credit or status an analogy which cannot be ignored here.

Elite #1: Alright we need to make even more money pronto, anybody got any pitches!
Elite #2: I got it! We create a new degree for gullible 18 year olds, primarily women, to fall for called “gender studies degree.” It will be a degree that complains about how oppressed women are, and also the gender wage gap, in which the students will pay us hundreds of thousands of dollars to learn about. Then, when they graduate, they will not be able to get any job, thus contributing to the oppression of women, as well as the wage gap they will complain about.
Elite #1: That. Is. FUCKING GENIUS!!! We’re gonna be twice as rich as we were before!
